I got it for my 7th birthday! Poor old Henry wasn't exactly a hero, but I loved his story. Still do, actually.

from the 1970s. Quite simply better James Bond-style stories than any but the very best of Ian Fleming's.

Yeah, I take your point.
Just couldn't get over how much they look alike.

I don't know if that would be one of Marvel's unknowns to be placed in a movie.

Never read him, but I always wish I had.




Instead I waited around forever for this guy to get his own book. By the time he did, I wasn't reading funny books any more.

was great. I was a huge Gilbert Shelton fan back in the day. The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers are still funny as hell.

Believe it or not, my first husband composed the theme song for the movie. He was a fan of the artist who drew the comic, whose name I've forgotten. The artist and my ex both used to live in Plainfield, NJ.
